Why are people like you insistent with iPhone-sealed-battery status quo is the best? Being a renter of a shiny accessory to show off that has an expiry date with that sealed battery, rather than something you can own for years more? Paying extra things like cloud because of the miniscule amount of onboard storage, or have to endure carrying an extra accessory for memory expansion? Or endure carrying extra weight for powerbank, or having to go looking for outlets to plug in while you're out of the house?
Is this is the future you want? Devices you need to be extra careful because that glass back will break easy? Or you keep reminding anyone holding your device not to Pen the pen the wrong way because it can get stuck that way?

I still think non-remivable battery is the future we all can't avoid. We all can't possibly hold on to our Note 4 forever for tye sake of expandable storage and removable battery. Even for the last few months most of the new smarthone that are released have non-removable battery. Tye trend keen to go that way. Your wish for removable battery will never happen. Expandable memory may be inffered but that is all it will come to.

Okay, folks, here is the deal. The government of the USA is pushing for all enclosed phones so they can always track you, even if your phone is turned off they can turn it on remotely . If you ever travel to the USA, you will find out the police and customs can make you turn on the phone and check your media. If you do NOT want to be tracked EVER, buy a phone with removable battery and media. This way if you are ever some place where you don't want anyone to know all you do is pull the battery. I am buying the NOTE 4 exactly for those reasons. I wanted the S 6 but changed my mind when I found out they are like Apple now, NO removable battery or SD card. Samsung better watch out, they will lose lots of loyal customers.

Steve J, 22 Oct 2015Well, it looks like there is a dichotomy within the Samsung Note customers. There are many who... moreDichotomy is correct. With the ushering of the S7 rumors, it is inclined that another sealed battery handheld device is inferred. We will know by January, and then we can all surmise that Samsung will never be going back with removable battery and memory expansion. What folly!
Simulated bejeweled thing over functionality. The LG V10 is mightily is tempting, even without the active digitizer pen. It even has an infrared remote blaster, removable battery, memory expansion and a military-graded drop durability because its back isn't glass.

Steve J, 22 Oct 2015Well, it looks like there is a dichotomy within the Samsung Note customers. There are many who... moreYes, I fully agree Steve and I would not be surprised if this was their intention all along. I bought the Note 4 about 6 weeks go and not the Note 5 because I like the removable battery and expandable memory. Now my Note 4 is updated to Lollypop and running beautifully, as one would expect.

Well, it looks like there is a dichotomy within the Samsung Note customers. There are many who have clearly rejected the sealed battery with non - expandable memory option. The disappointment is palpable. One can feel the loud pulse of customers who see it as a betrayal in their trust and a resounding regressive move. Samsung opted for form over function and for the aficionados that is a slap in the face, a low blow, a kick in the teeth!
The solution for Samsung is to revert to the status quo ante and at least offer the next Note with expandable memory and a user - replaceable battery. They can simultaneously retain the fixed battery, non - external battery version; thereby offering two versions of the same phone.

Connection on the phone also depends on the network. If the area offers moderate reception then phone's signal will be affected. We should also bare in mind that it is not always a device issue cause it might be a network issue. The phone will work depending on how the owner use and handle it.

No sense. Anyone with a logical mind say they love the slippery glass back? How they love fingerprints on the device? How great it is that it's more fragile? Just so they can say they have it has incredible "premium" build? How it's so thin, only to put a thick plastic cover to protect it?
A sealed battery is the future of powering smartphone? Unless battery technology finally gives us a new technology that gives more than 3 times the power capacity per volume than the current lithium technology, a removable battery still gives you the fastest way to regain full power for heavy use without the bulkiness.
I'm not stopping anyone from enjoying their fascination of lugging around powerbank/charger/wireless charger pad to charge their sealed battery. Samsung, just needs to bring back this essential feature that makes them as Samsung. It gives people like me better battery management and options.

Warranty on battery ends in 6 moths .Cellphone warranty is usually 2 years but battery only six moths. After that you have to pay for replacement in authorized service.
So its crap.
